Great poster from the crowd at the convention on Wednesday coverage.
On Wednesday, what with the roll call, Wednesday's coverage with Keith began so early that I wasn't home from work yet, so I set my recorder and, lo and behold, it worked. I just watched the recorded part tonight, and was amused to see that one of the opening shots showed people in the outside crowd around the MSNBC booth holding up a giant banner that said "WELCOME TO COLORADO." It had an image of mountains on it, and superimposed on that, an image like the cover of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, only the bass drum was decorated with peacocks and said "MSNBC." The faces of the Beatles had been replaced with those of MSNBC personalities.

I loved it. Keith was in Paul's place, holding the English horn. :rofl:

2. Did you think you'd keep it to yourself?
:rofl:

The pic they used of Keith was the one used on MSNBC's fans and T-shirts, where he's facing forward with the solemn look. Perfect--just as the pic you chose was perfect for YOUR cover. It looks as if he actually could have posed for it!

3. Whew!
For a moment there, I thought you were gonna say someone had a pic of SouthPark Keith. (which, sadly, I no longer have a linky for...:cry: )

4. Given that it was Colorado
you'd think that would have been the more obvious choice. Turn all the MSNBC talkers into South Park characters.

Then again, maybe someone did do that kind of banner but for some reason it just didn't make it to TV.
